Hollywood Smiles

There are stars on the sidewalks of Hollywood

Footprints and names in cement

The palm trees and more and the summers

Even your dreams could invent

The sun sets like one dying ember

My, how the time passes slow

And soon you forget to remember

You think it's heaven, I know

But Hollywood smiles

Like a movie star playing the part of a friend

And Hollywood smiles

And you never know whether it's real or pretend

Chasing your dream 'round the bend

They call this the city of angels

A mecca of fortune and fame

The pot at the end of the rainbow

Sure beats the cold and the rain

And everyone here loves a winner

Man, when you're down, you're alone

So show me some light, just a glimmer

Don't let me die an unknown

'Cause Hollywood smiles

Like a movie star playing the part of a friend

And Hollywood smiles

And you never know whether it's real or pretend

Chasing your dream 'round the bend

Oh, Hollywood smiles

Like a movie star playing the part of a friend

And Hollywood smiles

And you never know whether it's real or pretend
